Easter Fun

Do you love all the pastel colours of Easter?  I have to admit, they are not my favourite.  I can relate much more to the rich burgundy, orange and gold colours of fall.  However, pastels do seem to lend themselves to a more whimsical fun feeling which is what I've tried to create with this tablescape.

It all started with the wonderful checked tablecloth I found at Home Outfitters.  It had so many colours in it and just seemed so "Easter-y" to me.

I created a centerpiece by placing a brown bunny (Home Sense) on a pedestal cake plate set inside an egg wreath. Easter grass and plastic eggs are nestled around the bunny. 

A look from the other end of the table.

On each side of the centerpiece, I placed glitter eggs-on-picks inside rectangular glass vases and a vase of fresh Gerbera daisies in bright colours.

See the little bunny "praying" by the cross candle holder?

I alternated my yellow/green Gibson dinner plates on gold chargers.

On top of those, I placed my blue "flower" salad plates and bowls (Safeway grocery store 2 years ago)

  Napkins that match the tablecloth were placed underneath.

Another "larger" look...this is another tablescape I did before I had a blog and I didn't take nearly enough pictures!
